State of (Mobile) Web Development Report

We’ve just published the first “State of (Mobile) Web Development” Report, analysing the results of our recent survey of over 1,300 developers.

I only mention it as for the most part, I have to develop/target such devices, basically using a lowest common denominator interface

It is interesting how Android is gaining usage.
My prediction is a decrease in app usage as mobile networks increase in speed.
